Who remembers the late, great Farrah Fawcett? When I was a girl, television still had some novelty and we used to sit down as a family and watch Charlie’s Angels and the Six Million Dollar Man all together. I cut out magazine pictures of Farrah and stuck them on my bedroom wall. I desperately wanted the Farrah flick and endured endless teasing at my failed efforts. After all, I was 8 or 9 years old. I didn’t have curling tongs or gels or hairsprays, only my trusty comb and a desire to be re-born in her hairstyle.

Last weekend, on a flea market jaunt, I saw Farrah Fawcett’s picture up on a wall, and it triggered those memories.

I got pretty close to that hairstyle for a while! Not quite so voluminous but definitely all “feathered” like that – haha! What a great choice for the idea of nostalgia this week; I’m already tripping down memory lane as I think about not only that hairstyle, but my hiphuggers, clear belt with double row of holes, midriff shirts, etc.

OMG WC, that really was a throwback!! I remember her perfectly, I adored her AND her hairstyle. She became quite a good actress later on – remember The Burning Bed? And sadly died quite young as I recall. Anyway, a very fond memory, thanks!!

Yes I think she died of cancer fairly young. Although she was good as a serious actress, she’ll forever be imprinted in our minds as an Angel. I read that she only did one full series, peppered with guest appearances in later series. Which makes her popularity even more amazing.

I remember Farrah Fawcett and the times when Charlie’s Angels was on TV, or rather, replays of the show on TV in the 90s when I grew up. I too love her locks. Full of volume and such soft and luscious curls. My hair is a bit too thin and straight for that look 😀
